Minecraft.net being blocked?

Okay, so, i just had about a half hour internet outage and now it's back on, but so far some websites don't work. For example, I can't log into minecraft, connect to minecraft.net, or thepiratebay.se, and a few others, while my friend on a diffrent connection at his own house can, but sites such as facebook, youtube, google, ect… Are all working fine. I have tried turning off my firewalls, connecting from a diffrent device, and no one has touched the router or anything to setup a firewall or somthing like that. Any ideas of why this is happing or how to fix it? (my isp is baja broadband, not sure if it matters at all or not)

My Custom Gaming PC Freezes During Gaming Only?

I have searched endlessly through the internet and can't find a fix for my issue. I recently bought a custom built gaming computer from Ironside. The computer itself works fantastic, however I started playing Skyrim and it was freezing up. I figured it was a Steam issue because Steam is known for lots of gaming mistakes. However when the problem wouldn't fix, I decided to try it out on a new game. I tried The Sims 3, Minecraft, and other games and then I discovered this was the actual computer's fault.

These are my specs:

AMD Processor - AMD Athlon x4 760K 3.8GHz (Quad Core)
CPU Cooling - Standard Heatsink
AMD Motherboard - MSI FM2-A55M-E33 {2 DDR3 Slots}
Memory - 8GB (1x8GB) DDR3 1600MHz
Hard Drive - 1TB 7200 RPM
Storage Hard Drive - None
Optical Drive - DVD Writer
Graphics Card - Nvidia Geforce GTX 760 2GB
Power Supply - 600 Watt Power Supply
Operating System - Windows 8.1 64 Bit
Networking - Internal Wireless N 150Mbps

The game is fine on highest settings for about 5-20 minutes and then it restarts/freezes. Other people are having this issue but I haven't found a solution. If anyone could help or has anything similar happening to them please respond. Surely ironside didn't send me a dud…

Also, if you have an answer could you go a bit into depth because I'm not exactly a genuis (in case you couldn't tell)

Is a MacBook Pro 13 worth it for me?

Yes, I know that I could save probably about $1000 or more by just getting a Windows. To be honest, money is very tight for me but if a MacBook Pro really is worth it compared to a much-cheaper Windows 8 laptop then maybe I'd be willing to take a little more out of my wallet.

On a daily basis, I typically go on YouTube, Tumblr, etc., while I also occasionally do play games such as The Sims 3 and Minecraft (which I heard do run fairly well on a Mac). The one thing I was definitely iffy about with the Mac was I heard recording gameplay for YouTube isn't the best, which also sort of leads me towards a Windows.

Like I said, I really want a Mac because the specs are good and the interface is pretty. Then again, money is tight and I just don't want to spend $2000 for something that I could get of equal quality or better quality for over $1000 less.

NOTE: I unfortunately can't get a desktop. Out of the question.

How to dry up the water on minecraft?

I'm in survival mode. I was attempting to make a simple water fountain. As soon as i added water, the entire thing overflowed, now its a HUGE ocean of water in front of my house, all from one bucket of water. I have tried placing blocks in it, but it even flows over that and makes a bigger mess. So. Damn. Frustrating. UGHH.
How do I fix it?

Looking for gaming PC Build 600?

I'm looking for a gaming PC build that will run me around 600 dollars or less. I may go over 600 dollars. 700 tops! I'm looking to mainly run Minecraft, TeamFortress2, (DayZ on low settings), and other games such as Skyrim. I assume I will have to run most of these games on low-medium settings for good FPS coverage. BTW, I will be hooking up the PC to an HDMI port. (Note: THIS MUST INCLUDE WINDOWS 7).
